Suzanne Vega

“I think the cultural boycott punishes people who make their living in the arts, both in Israel and without. If culture is the medium by which we have dialogue, boycotting cuts this off. It doesn’t add to it. I wanted to sing my song ‘Horizon’ in Israel, as it’s a song about transcending your limitations and your conflicts through the ideal of love. I didn’t want to be bullied out of it.”
